I plugged the coordinates into Google maps, and it came up with an aerial photo of Area 51, or at least that's what I think it is.

Okay, just did a Whois.net domain registration search on the site..

If this were really set aside to be involved in an ARG, I think that whoever was running the operation would mask the registration info. Instead, it says its been registered by who I can only assume is the kid's mom. Lists Texas and everything..

Huh.

So? People are capable of lieing about their details...

Yeah, I know, its always plausible..

If you do manage to get ahold of him tomorrow, at least ask him what the heck is up with his site. If he picks up, that is.

I just sent him a message on MySpace, something along the lines of:

Subject: Is this your website?

Body: http://electricmetal.net

If you want, you could give me the hackers' screennames and I'll track them down for you.


I wonder if I'll get a reply...

Careful--you might shoot your eye out with that theory.



Is it plausible that this Scott character had this website before, and was contacted by a mysterious bald man wearing Bungie memorabilia, and agreed to let them use the site for whatever they wanted?
